What is the Relationship of solute concentration and solvent concentration?

These words are the two parts of dissolution. A solute is what is being dissolved, and a solvent is what dissolves it. The most universal solvent is water, which means that most solutes can be dissolved into it.
A solute (e.g. sugar) is dissolved in a solvent (e.g. water) to make a solution - sugar solution

∙ 14y agoThese two variables have an inverse relationship. That is, the higher the solvent concentration, the lower the solute concentration. Similarly, the lower the solvent concentration, the higher the solute concentration.

∙ 13y agoThe freezing point in a solute depresses every time another compound is added. For example salt water, commonly referred to as sea water has a lower freezing point than the of the original solvent water. So essentially, as the concentration of a solute increases, the freezing point decreases.

What Contains a relatively small amount of solute per given amount of solvent?
A weak solution has only a little solute dissolved in a solvent.
What is osmolarity?
Osmolarity is a measure of the osmoles of solute per liter of solution.
What is the osmosis definition?
"Osmosis is the diffusion of a solvent (frequently water) through a semi-permeable membrane, from a solution of low solute concentration (high water potential) to a solution with high solute concentration (low water potential), up a solute concentration gradient."
Is a solvent the substance that dissolves the solute?
Yes because the solute gets dissolved when put in the solvent
What is a solute and solvent?
A solute is a solid, being dissolved in liquid. A solvent is the liquid in which the solid, or solute is being dissolved in.
What is the relationship between solutes solutions and solvents?
1. A solvent and a solute are both parts of a solution.2. The solvent is mostly in majority and, it dissolves a solute in itself to make a solution.
Is dilution is the addition of solute to decrease the concentration of solvent?
No. dilution is the addition of solvent to decrease the concentration of a solute.
What is the Relationship solute concentration solvent concentration in osmosis?
In any situation, the more concentrated a solution is in terms of solute, the less concentrated it is in terms of solvent. This is important in osmosis as you have to be careful which way round you express things, because it is water which moves from where there is a lot of it to where there is less. Thus you have to understand that if you have a high concentration of sugar, you have a lower concentration of water.
What is a ratio of a solute to a solvent is?
This is the concentration of the solute in the solution.
What is the relationship of a solvent and a solute in a solution?
The solute is the substance dissolved in a solvent.
What tells us how much solute is present compared to the amount of solvent?
The amount of saturation tells how much solute is present compared to the amount of solvent..!!
How do you indicate the concentration of soloutions?
concentration= solvent times solute
Can be expressed as grams of solute per of solvent?
The answer is: Concentration can be expressed as grams of solute per milliliter of solvent.
Definition of solute concentration?
It is the amount of solute dissolved from a solvent in a solution
Differentiate dilute solution and concentrated solution?
Dilute solution: low concentration of the solute in the solvent Concentrated solution: high concentration of the solute in the solvent
What does concentration mean?
concentration means there is more solute than solvent
The amount of solute required to form a saturated solution in a particular amount of solvent is the?
The Concentration
